trump seems to be agreeing with the criticism of carson:

“WOW, one of many lies by Ben Carson! Big story,” Trump tweeted.

Carson’s camp insists he was told he “could get an appointment,” but decided to pursue medical school instead.

Trump earlier unloaded on Carson following reports questioning his narrative about overcoming a violent youth.

“With Ben Carson wanting to hit his mother on head with a hammer, stab a friend and Pyramids built for grain storage – don’t people get it?” Trump wrote.


Carson admits West Point story is bogus, gets ripped by Trump | New York Post

GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump says primary rival Ben Carson’s violent childhood indicates that he has a “pathological disease” that has still not been treated.

“When you suffer from pathological disease, you’re not really getting better unless you start taking pills and things,” Trump said on Fox News’ “The O’Reilly Factor” on Friday.

Obama isn't running for office so all this bull crap about him is just a deflection to take the heat off from Benny Boy. All the questions about Obama have been investigated and answered ad nauseam. It's not his fault that some Birthers and conspiracy theorists can't accept the truth. Now it's Benny Boy's turn on the hot seat. Deal with it.

Why is Carson trying to stop the investigation of his background? What is he trying to hide? He attacks the media for "lies" when all they've done is question what he's written in his books. It sure sounds like he is anticipating them finding something.... What is he hiding?

Very suspicious.

What kills me is that conservatives went to the extent of interviewing the president's grammar school teachers. They also went over all his writing closely, and mis-quoted him by changing the emphasis in something he said through some obvious editing.

Carson needs to quit whining. He's running for president and all that he has said will be examined. What did or did not happen to the president is irrelevant to Carson's pyramid nonsense or to the other bone-headed claims h has made. Its not the 'MSM' picking on him -- he needs to verify the claims he made.

It is beginning to look like other heads of state would never take Carson seriously after some the statements he has made.He certainly doesn't seem ready for any 3 am emergency diplomatic call.

I do not see any line of intelligent reasoning in the question. It is not relevant. Carson is Carson, who is a candidate for the presidency, like so many others. Obama is already a two term winner of that office. I find it racist to even compare the two in the same sentence. What, just because they are black? One is a tried and true, successful leader of the free world. The other is a job candidate with limited experience. If he cannot answer the questions about information that he put out there, (West Point, shielding white students during the riots, etc), then he should watch what he says. Some people feel the need to boast about things to make themselves seem more attractive. It is needy sounding when anyone feels the need to tell tales of yesteryear that cannot be confirmed. Although they cannot necessary be denied, it calls into question the character of the person making the unsubstantiated claims. It makes them appear weak and in the end, of questionable integrity. Claiming to be a victim of the media, who have treated Carson with kid gloves up until now, is lame. Time to "Man-Up," Carson. You cannot have it both ways; meaning you cannot make a lot of claims to the media that resulted in better poll numbers, and then cry victim when they fact check them. No one likes a cry-baby.

Speak for yourself.

The fact that you don't know as much as you'd like about Obama has nothing to do with what other people know.
